Just picked up #M42Technik's (Dan's) old Diamondschwarz 318is <http://www.r3vlimited.com/board/showthread.php?t=218251&highlight=91>
on Saturday, and after spending most of the first day at his place parts swapping, cursing, and a taking short ride to my buddy's shop with NOO brakes. The project had begun.
It got new rear brakes, a repaired braking system, along with some other quick fixes to get it drivable, and the old beast made it all the way back to North Jersey on Sunday. Gonna spend the next three weeks driving it and going over the necessary repairs and mods to prep it for the new heart.
October 9th is transplant day taking place up in the finger lakes region of NY. An m50 non-vanos swap that will add some much needed pep to the old girl.
Keep your eyes open for lots of photos and remarks to come.
Thanks again to Dan for the hospitality and the Orange cremesicle bar .... oh it was so refreshing in the heat. Had a good time getting it rolling with you!!
